That's misdirection on your part to try to villainize anti-piracy attempts and compare them to censorship. Nobody is making laws regarding your freedom to PRODUCE original content and distribute it yourself.

There is no relationship between piracy and the historical opposition to the printing press. Of course, you can stretch to make the connection, but we both know it's just not there.
